^ not sure what gear ratios are in the Cobra

I went with the #1260, so ALL gears were indistinguishable from my T-3560 except the following. Approx. 30% taller 1st gear and .8 gear directly inbetween the 1/1 4th gear and the .68 5th gear.

This gave me a nice cruising gear for 50~60 MPH and completely eliminated the HUGE gap between 4th and 5th I had in my T-3650 Saleen and the T-5 I had in my previous '85 GT. This was a pretty expensive mod and would NOT have done it had it not been for the failing bearings I had.
